Teams, themes and costumes – the Grape Stomp had it all. by Heather Colpitts [email protected] The fifth annual Grape Stomp Sunday at Township 7 Vineyard and Winery saw the biggest turn- out of teams yet. “It was by far the most sus- ccessful one we’ve ever had, team attendance wise, costume wise and for overall enthusiasm,” said Langley manager Jason Ocenas. Approximately two tonnes of surplus Langley-grown grapes were stomped by 45 teams in five heats on Oct. 26. The winners of the timed events were the Wined Up Toys and the Five Bs. The best costume award went to the team Bewitches. The spirit award was given to the Stompin’ Toms. “They rewrote a Stompin’ Tom song… and gave it to the band to play,” Ocenas explained. The event will benefit Critter Care wildlife sanctuary but the figures haven’t been tallied yet. Ocenas said the winery intends to keep holding fun, community and charity events. The next up is a Nov. 30 open house to benefit the Langley Christmas Bureau. “We’re little but if we can do some little part to be able to give back, we will,” he said. He said each event brings out people who didn’t realize that there are vineyards here. Ocenas said the local wine industry has seen a boost in exposure through the Campbell Valley Wine Tour.

    Police are investigating acrash that struck at Langleycar dealership.by Matthew [email protected]

    A spectacularly destructivecrash left several classic carsdamaged after a young mandrove into a Langley car dealer-ship last week.At about 1:15 a.m. on Oct. 18,

    the car veered off the road andthrough the display windows ofthe Original Applewood dealer-ship in the 19800 block of FraserHighway.Security video shows the car

    speeding off Fraser Highway andthen suddenly hitting the front

    of the dealership in a shower ofglass.Inside, the car slammed into

    two desks, and collided withtwo classic cars parked there fordisplay.It was good that no one was

    around, said owner DarrenGraham.The car sheared through a sup-

    port beam, and did about $35-40,000 damage to one classic carand between $10,000 to $15,000damage to two more.A 1936 Pontiac had its ori-

    ginal grill destroyed, and a 1961Cadillac lost its original wind-shield, among other damage.It could be $150,000 to make

    the building right again, saidGraham. In total, it could be$250,000 damage to the dealer-ship, he said.

    Original Applewood sells pre-owned cars, and is just aroundthe corner from the ApplewoodKia dealership. Ironically, the carthat smashed into their buildingis itself a Kia.The car that he was driving

    may possibly have been soldfrom that dealership, Grahamsaid. He called it a return tosender situation.Video footage shows the

    young male driver scramblingout of the car and running awayshortly after the crash.Police identified the driver

    and caught up to him quickly,said Cpl. Holly Marks, a spokes-person for the Langley RCMP.He was found at his home

    and was given an administrativedriving prohibition. Police arestill investigating whether alco-

    hol was a factor in the crash.The suspect is a 20-year-oldlocal man, and was the ownerof the car that hit the dealership,said Marks.When Graham and the staff at

    the dealership arrived, the areawhere the car had hit lookedlike a bomb went off, he said.A big heavy car causes big

    heavy damage, he said.He believes that the driver was

    trying to get into the parking lotof the nearby McDonalds.The dealership didnt stay

    closed for long despite the dam-age.Engineers assessed the build-

    ing and some two-by-tens arenow holding up the roof untilmajor repairs can be made. Theywere open for business laterSaturday.

    Christmas Bureau opensfor the season. The satelliteoffice in Aldergrove opensNov. 4 at Unit 104 26956Fraser Hwy. at the AviaEmployment Services officeagain.The biggest change is a

    new location for the mainoperation.With the sale of its for-

    mer site, the Coast CapitalCredit Union buildings, thebureau has moved to a sitethat was in the past theSAAN and Fields stores,Unit 307 20300 FraserHwy.Were happy with this

    space because we can con-centrate everything, saidco-chair Leigh Castron.Its not easy finding a

    place to run this massivegift drive.We start in August look-

    ing for a place, explainedJim McGregor, the otherco-chair of the volunteerChristmas bureau. Itsnice to have somethingthats close to the busroutes and in the down-

    town.The Langley Christmas

    social service and charityagencies in the commun-ity, and theyve reportedincreased need for theirservices.Everyone involved at the

    Langley Christmas Bureau,about 100 people in all, arevolunteers. Langley is rarein having an entirely vol-unteer Christmas bureau.Most communities havehad to resort to paid stafffor at least some of thepositions.In Langley, the bureau is

    in the enviable position ofhaving to turn away vol-unteers because the peoplewho help out return yearafter year.They not only run the

    registration, screeningand toy distribution at thedowntown Langley andAldergrove offices butalso initiatives around thecommunity. The Gifts forKids program will be inthe Willowbrook Shopping

    Centre from Nov. 30 toDec. 14 and is a vital wayto elicit donations of toys,gifts and funds.Towards the end [of

    the Christmas bureau cam-paign] theyre going twicea day to load up dona-tions and bring them backto the main office for sort-ing, noted McGregor.Gifts for Kids gives a

    very visible presence to theChristmas bureau. Manyfamilies have made stop-ping by the display a holi-day tradition.Weve got second and

    third generation peoplecoming to that, he said.The Langley Christmas

    Bureau will also, like theothers around the region,receive a load of toysfrom the Lower MainlandChristmas Bureau and is arecipient of $20,000 in sup-port from the VancouverProvince Empty StockingFund.The Christmas bureau is

    a six-figure operation notpossible with strong com-munity support.Theres already been

    a fundraiser Chairs forCharity on Oct. 23 andmore are being readied forNovember and December.The Mayors Wives Tea is

    set for Nov. 23 at the CoastHotel and ConventionCentre. Tickets are $25 perperson and available start-ing Nov. 1 at the Christmasbureau, the Birthplaceof B.C. Gallery in FortLangley, and online (www.thankyouforcaringachrist-mastea.com).Source Office Furnishings

  • Livestock on the streetsresulted in a number of callsto emergency services.by Matthew [email protected]

    Langley Township firefightershad to play cowboy Thursdayafter at least two horsesgot loose and ran onto theTransCanada Highway.Were chasing horses up and

    down the freeway, said assist-ant fire chief Bruce Ferguson.The horses were spooked and

    running against the flow of traf-fic, Ferguson said. They seemto have started out in the west-bound lane.They managed to cross the

    highway somewhere near the24400 block and then ran againsttraffic in the eastbound lanes.About four firehalls contrib-

    uted personnel and vehicles tothe efforts, with RCMP helpingout with traffic control.By the time the Port Mann

    Traffic Services officers arrivedon the scene, the horses werelargely corralled off to the sideof the road near the eastboundlanes, according to police. They

    were temporarily held in one ofthe rural lots where gravel hasbeen extracted in the past.The horses were unharmed,

    and no accidents were caused.The owner arrived with a

    trailer and helped round up thehorses and took them away after

    the incident, according to PortMann Traffic Services reports.It was a busy day for livestock,

    as there were also reports on thesame day of loose cattle nearGlover Road and an unconfirmedreport of a calf on the highwaynear 232nd Street. Some of thecalls may have been duplicatesor misidentifications stemmingfrom the same incidents, saidFerguson.It is not uncommon for

    Langleys emergency respond-ers and animal control officersto have to deal with livestock,from cattle, horses, and sheep tolamas and the odd emu.

  • A variety of tributes andinitiatives have started.Canadians were encouraged

    to wear red on Oct. 24 in hon-our of Cpl. Nathan Cirillo, theCanadian reservist who was mur-dered Wednesday, Oct. 22, at theNational War Memorial in Ottawa.Across Canada last week, flags

    at federal buildings, and many atprivate buildings, were flying athalf mast, and small shrines and

    private remembrances were pop-ping up, including red flowers lefton the cenotaph in Langley Citynext to the Royal Canadian Legionbranch on 56th Avenue.There are four cenotaphs in

    Langley, at both Legions (inAldergrove and the City) and twoin cemeteries, in Fort Langley andMurrayville.

    Cirillo was a single father who was devotedto his six-year-old son. In honour of all thevalues that Cirillo stood for, Glacier Media hasstarted a memorial crowdfunding campaign on

    FundAid.ca. It raised hundreds of dollars in thefirst day alone.

    The money will be donated to a trust fundfor Cirillos son as a way to join BarbaraWinters in saying, Were all trying to helpyou.

    To donate to this campaign, go to FundAid.ca and search for We Stand On Guard for Cpl.Nathan Cirillos Son.

    Glacier Media, the parent company ofFundAid and this newspaper, and Fundrazr,its crowdfunding partner, have waived servicefees for this campaign.

  • The candidates and volunteerspounding in election signs mustfollow a number of rules.by Matthew [email protected]

    Like mushrooms after the rain, electionsigns spring up quickly during every civiccampaign in the Langleys.Signs started going up on Oct. 10 in

    Langley City and in the Township on Oct.26.By Monday morning, one day after

    signs were first allowed, election officerBob Wilson said there had already beensome complaints about signs.Theres been about

    three or four, Wilsonsaid. He did not say whichcandidates signs causedthe complaints.The issues included a

    couple for issues of block-ing sight lines, one for asign that was too high, and one for a signin a traffic circle.Signs in the Township are allowed

    along medians, but they cant block theview of drivers or other road users.If there is a safety issue, Township

    bylaw officers will pull the offendingsign, and the candidate who owns it isalerted.The Township was considering a com-

    prehensive bylaw for campaign signs,and it was brought before the council inJanuary this year.The new rules would have banned

    signs within 30 metres of an intersection,within two metres of the curb or nearestdriving lane, and would have increasedfines to $200 for violations.Some of the proposed rules suggested

    that Township staff were worried abouthigh-tech gimmicks distracting drivers.Signs must not be animated, illumin-

    ated, rotating, flashing or have movinglights or other electrical features [and]must not have attachments such as bal-loons, kites, an electronic message centreor inflatable devices, reads one sectionof the proposed bylaw.The rules were never implemented. The

    Township council voted to send them tothe Council Priorities Committee for fur-ther consideration. Wilson said they werebumped by other urgent concerns untilthe fall, when the election was about tobegin.Hes hoping the proposal will be con-

    sidered next year by the new incomingcouncil.The rules in Langley City are more

    restrictive than those in the Township,but allow signs to be up for longer times.

    Potential candidates formayor, council, or schoolboard can only put upsigns on private property,with the owners permis-sion.In addition, there are

    two public areas wheresigns can be placed: along the BC Hydroright of way on 200th Street just northof 48th Avenue, or along the edge of theGateway of Hope shelter property on theLangley Bypass.According to the Citys election officer

    Carolyn Mushata, there havent beenany complaints so far this year aboutimproperly placed signs.Candidates are responsible for removing

    the signs shortly after the vote.They must be gone by Nov. 19 at 4:30

    p.m., said Wilson. City candidates haveseven days to remove their signs after theNov. 15 election.The next debates this week include a

    Tuesday, Oct. 28 all candidates meetingfor Township mayor and council contend-ers at the Langley Events Centre startedat 7 p.m., and on Thursday a debate forschool trustee candidates at 7 p.m. at theLangley Seniors Resource Centre.

    Halloween is a good time to remind our-selves that there are things we should bescared of, things we should be wary of, andthings that are too silly to worry about.Zombies fall into the latter category.The whole concept of zombies is so silly,

    you have to wonder why anyone would takethem seriously at all.And yet There are people who worry that

    the appearance of zombies whether on tele-vision or in the movies or on the streets of ourcommunities may do irreparable damage tothe fabric of our society.Hey folks, out there: theyre

    not real!Now, just in case you didnt

    get that: Zombies are not real!Zombies cannot possibly be

    real, any more than a 1930sgorilla could be 40 feet tall (ora circa 1950s woman could be50 feet tall) without breaking its legs under itsown weight let alone the ridiculous conceptof such a massive creature hauling itself upthe outside of the Empire State Building.Insects cant be as big as buildings, both

    because of the impossible stresses caused to itsbody parts by the mass to volume ratio, andbecause they breathe by exchanging oxy-gen from the air through tiny tubules throughtheir exoskeletons a respiratory system notremotely efficient enough to sustain interiortissues and organs in larger versions.Also impossible would be a race of warlike

    people living at the centre of our earth. If theyattempted to broach the surface of the planetwith intent to do us harm, they would explodefrom the pressure differential before they gotwithin miles of our deepest mine shafts.Zombies make even less sense than nearly

    all of the other monsters that claim to hide

    under our beds. Theyre dead, and their tis-sues are degraded and rotting, and thereforecannot sustain life processes.Everything that moves requires energy to do

    so. The zombies of popular culture use energy,but rarely consume anything from which toderive that energy. Zombies cannot exist,except only in the imaginations of silly peoplewith nothing better to do than to enjoy them-selves with imaginings of zombies.Why would anyone deny them their enjoy-

    ment, when there are so many real things outthere that are far scarier?Terrorists, for instance, are far scarier than

    zombies or aliens that glow in the dark.Terrorism, as we Canadians learned anew

    last week, is scary. It kills people and destroysfamilies. It has the capacity to turn, for themost part, mentally ill people into murderers.But even terrorism doesnt fall into the cat-

    egory of things we should bescared of. We should be wary,yes. But not scared.Scarier are stupid drivers with

    cellphones.We should also be wary of

    ebola: not scared (at least, notyet), but wary. If we dont payattention to it, it could wreak

    havoc here but we in North America arequite prepared for that kind of threat. Diseaseand pestilence are things we only need to bewary of; theyre only scary in places where theaverage standard of living and (by extension)hygiene is far below ours.We should be scared, however, that the

    people who live in conditions so vastly sub-standard to ours realize that we have muchand they have none. That realization has beenknown to breed terrorists. And we should bewary of that connection.But what we really need to watch out for is

    our government equating mental illness withterrorism, and attacking it with laws that donothing to fight mental illness.When they use a mentally ill terrorist to

    scare us into accepting legislated loss of free-dom now that is scarier than zombies on aHalloween night.

    Halloween funbest kept safe

    Everyone wants Halloween to be a funexperience, for themselves and especiallyfor their children.

    It is, unfortunately, a time of year whenthe fun and excitement of the celebrationcan get mixed up with tragedy.

    More and more, parents are foregoingmuch of the door-to-door tradition of col-lecting candy, and taking their gruesomely or awesomely masked kids to neigh-bourhood parties or other organized groupactivities.

    But if youre opting to include trick-or-treating in your childs Halloween experi-ence, some reasonable preparations willhelp to ensure it is the foundation for happymemories.

    First and foremost, trick-or-treating ismore fun and a lot safer when it is agroup activity. Share the fun with friends,and never go alone.

    Dont just pick costumes and masks fortheir scary or dazzling qualities visibilityis important, too. Make sure your kids cansee easily from behind their masks, andensure that their costumes keep them vis-ible on the sidewalks and especially on thecrosswalks which they should always useinstead of jaywalking and darting throughtraffic.

    In fact, it may be difficult with all theexcitement of the evening, but try to slowthose kids down a bit. Help motorists bymitigating the distractions of ghosts andghouls jumping in and out of their head-lights.

    Only trick-or-treat at homes where youare welcome porch lights or lit pump-kins and decorations make the invitationobvious, while darkness is a clear indica-tion that the homeowners dont share yourHalloween enthusiasm.

    And kids, dont dig into that windfallof candy until it has been inspected by anadult.

    Unfortunately, over the years, it hasbecome quite clear that, although thankfullyrare, some of Halloweens monsters arereal.

    Dear Editor,A few days ago, friends of mine from Fort

    Langley visited the old cemetery with ourdogs in tow.It was a revelation. I examined old tomb-

    stones with names so familiar to presentday Langley residents: Muffort (Crescent),Mackie (Street), Michaud (Crescent), Allard(Crescent), and many more.Underfoot and marked by weathered, old

    tombstones lay the remains of many of ourpioneers long since dead.My mind swept back over a cen-

    tury as I visualized the solemn occa-sion of the day they were interred.I visualized the sad procession

    winding its way to the gravesite:a black hearse drawn by blackhorses and driven by sombre menin top hats. Following them, ele-gantly dressed in funeral attire, were thesad women and men of the family.Similarly dressed, walking abreast, were

    the mourners who had come to pay homageto their departed friend.The clergy had then taken over with

    words of comfort and the promise of ever-lasting life, then the departure with thelabourers shovelling earth over the coffin,and then the stillness as the moon cast itsglow on the newly erected gravestone.With interest, I noted the names, the

    dates of birth and death and where thedeceased had originated.Many came from Scotland, a few from

    Ireland, England, and Wales.I learned from an excellent book by

    Donald E. Waite that the original FortLangley was a couple of miles west ofwhere it is now situated. Waites book isfilled with photographs of many of thosewho lie under their grave markers in theold Fort Langley graveyard: men, women,children; all filled with life and promise in anew land now called Langley.It makes one realize how short is the

    human life span.Mike Harvey, Langley

    Editor

    Dear Editor,I am disturbed that so

    many people, young andold, feel it acceptable to endtheir lives with the help ofa professional, and call itdying with dignity.Twenty years ago a col-

    umn in a major newspaperbore the headline, If sen-iors had their way, eutha-nasia would be law.

    If I live to an advancedage (family history suggestsI might), will I one daycatch my loved ones in anunguarded moment, with alook of weariness or impa-tience in their eyes?If the law says I have the

    legal right to end my life,will I feel I have to do it fortheir sake?My mother lived into her

    96th year. Her mind wasclear to the end, but shewas bedridden during thelast few weeks of her life.Did she see (oh God, I praynot) the fatigue and weari-ness on my face at times?As stressed as I was, I

    could not live with myself ifI thought she had ever con-templated taking her ownlife for my sake. As manytimes as I had to turn awayto hide my tears, I still con-sidered it a privilege to havebeen given the opportunityto care for an aged parent.I do not agree with pro-

    longing life by artificialmeans, but there is a vastdifference between with-holding life support andpromoting assisted suicide.We do not have the right

    to end a life, not even ourown. Everyone is here fora purpose, and perhaps, insome cases, that purposeis not fulfilled until the lastbreath is drawn.To this senior, dying with

    dignity means dying withthe grace to accept the cir-cumstances and the timethat a higher power thanmyself has decreed that Iwill.

    Doris Riedweg, Langley

    No room for discriminationDear Editor,I would argue Jack Poolman [Lawyers too discriminat-

    ing, Oct. 21 Letters, Langley Advance] is not dumbstruck, butjust dumb. His argument makes no sense. Hitler discrimin-ated against the Jews, so we should not have discriminatedagainst Hitler? The KKK discriminates against non-whites sowe should not discriminate against the KKK? Get real!No one has a right to discriminate. It is wrong and not

    a protected right! As a B.C. lawyer, I will choose to notpatronize Jack Poolmans business if he thinks that dis-crimination is acceptable. No need to erect a sign.

    Pool paramount in AldergroveDear Editor,I am weighing my decision on whom to vote for. I would

    ask you to please pose the following question to the can-didates publicly: Will you make the completion of theAldergrove Pool and Recreation Centre a top priority duringyour term as a councillor? Yes or No?I will also be asking the question, but I believe that we

    Playsafe message, as he has met children who have lost limbs

    One of the causes beinghelped by this yearsfestival is Access Youth.by Heather [email protected]

    So far this year up untilmid-October the AccessYouth Services Society(AYSS) has had about 1,600contacts with youth inLangley.Last year the total reached

    more than 2,000 contacts.The charity, formerly

    known as PoCoMo YouthServices, added Langley toits list of communities receiv-ing help a few year ago andwill this year receive helpfrom the Fraser Valley WineTasting Festival.The staff really enjoy

    being out here, executivedirector Jerome Bouvierrecently told Langley Citycouncil.AYSS provides what help

    it can, whether its provid-ing an ear for young peoplecouch surfing, a warm drink,information on health issues,or referrals to services.The AYSS bus starts out

    at the City firehall thentours. Services are providedFriday and Saturday even-ings, 7 p.m. to midnight. Ithas three buses (operating indifferent communities) andanother soon to be donatedby TransLink.Bouvier said a key facet

    of the work is dealing withmental health issues andthere are not supports outthere for them.The average time to

    get mental health servicesto young people is ninemonths, he said.AYSS has made some

    changes to try and help. Itused to be for youth ages 12to 18 but now services areprovided for youth up to 23.We see a lot of young

    people that are aged out andunfortunately have a hardtime getting those services,he said.As well as the AYSS bus

    that tours areas where youthcongregate, the society hasadded some bikes for itssmall crew so they can betterconnect with youth. AYSSalso uses social media.Homelessness is an issue

    because there isnt a hugenumber of places for youngpeople to be referred to, hesaid.Young people arent visible

    on the streets like the adulthomeless, and society hasless compassion for youngpeople on the streets, hesaid. He pointed to the factthat there are more animalshelters than shelters forpeople.A good chunk of his time

    is spent proposal writing toobtain grants so the wine fes-tival funding will be import-ant to the charity.Its getting tougher for all

    non-profits, he said.Funds are dwindling and

    many of the issues faced health, educational opportun-ities, mental health, addic-tion are provincial respon-sibilities but communitiesand groups like AYSS are onthe front line and not willingto wait for the province tostep up, he explained.I struggle with what the

    future looks like for ouryoung people, he com-mented.To learn more about the

    three causes go to www.aut-ismbc.ca, accessyouth.org,and focusbc.org.

    Wine tasting festival

    AYSS helps youth

    The annual Rotary gala eventis this Saturday and is amilestone for the community.by Heather [email protected]

    Not many charity events canboast 25 years of philanthropyand providing more than $800,000for various causes.This being our 25th anniver-

    sary, its the biggest and best yet,said Rotarian John Meagher.So the Fraser Valley Wine

    Tasting Festival organizers havedecided to dream big for theirevent Nov. 1.We want people to help us get

    to $1 million, he said.And bringing in more funds

    means theres more funds to pro-vide to charity and communitygroups.The 25th anniversary wine fest

    proceeds will go to the AutismSociety of B.C., the Access YouthOutreach Services Society (for-merly PoCoMo Youth ServicesSociety), and Focus BC whichhelps troubled youth with educa-tion and therapy.The Autism Society of BC has

    been around since 1974 and is aparent-based and parent-directedsociety providing support to indi-viduals with autism and theirfamilies.Essentially were concentrat-

    ing on kids that need help, kidsat risk, said Tousignant. Everyyear we have more requests [forfunding help].The goal is to provide as much

    funding as possible.We hope to reach to more

    community services than in thepast, he added.The members of

    the Rotary Clubof Langley Centralspend a great dealof time discussingwhere to devote thefunds raised at thislargest fundraiser ofthe year.Our main area,

    which we havent done any-thing yet is kids with autism,Tousignant said.Despite the success of the past

    24 years, the organizers alwaysfeel some trepidation.Every year when the Rotarians

    start planning for this, they won-der if people of Langley are goingto decide, no not this year, its too

    deja vu after more than two dec-ades or find another reason not tosupport wine fest, he said.Every year the people have

    supported us and really gottenbehind us, Tousignant said. Wedont take anything for granted.This year ticket sales are strong.Despite the success, Rotarians

    dont tinker with the format.There will be wine (about 200varieties from 37 vendors) andgourmet goodies. Initially tworestaurants provided food. Now11 Langley eateries will be on site

    feeding patrons.There will bethree differentmusic sites spreadaround the venueand fundraiserssuch as a 50/50draw.Organizers keep

    the event to 1,200people so it doesnt become toounwieldy and so they can usethe unique venue WillowbrookShopping Centre after closing.Wine fest runs 7-9:30 p.m. on

    Nov. 1. Tickets are $50 per per-son. For tickets go to www.fvwf.ca or the Willowbrook customerservice counter. People can call604-2020-0364.

    BC needs school trustees whowill speak up and support our schools,not just implement the governments underfunding agenda.During our strike, teachers were heartened that so many parents, students, and other communitymembers stood with us in our fight to improve public eduation in BC.Together, we told government that the status quo - funding BC Schools $1000 less per studentthan the national average - is not ok. Our students need more classroom resources, specialists,and one-on-one time with their teachers.

    about 2,500 players,including 1,500 in theunder-five to under-12category. Membership fouryears ago was about 1,200.Every year we grow,

    Stams noted.Langley has the largest

    club in the Fraser Valleyand one of the leading pro-grams in the province.The funds are used to

    try and keep our registra-tion fees lower, as well

    as paying for capital itemslike equipment, field timeand more, Stams said.It keeps the kids partici-

    pating, summed up ScottMoye, the associationsdirector of grassroots soc-cer.These grants have been

    awarded under the Sportscategory of the CommunityGaming Grant Program,which allows non-profitorganizations to apply for
